Topological photonic transport in disordered scattering networks

This Ph.D. thesis unveils the unique topological phenomena occurring in such networks, focusing on the intricate interplay between their Floquet topology, the presence of disorder, and their unitary scattering at microscopic and macroscopic scales. Using t ...

Multiscale biomolecular simulations in the exascale era

Ursula Röthlisberger, Simone Meloni

The complexity of biological systems and processes, spanning molecular to macroscopic scales, necessitates the use of multiscale simulations to get a comprehensive understanding. lar dynamics (MD) simulations are crucial for capturing processes beyond the ...

Non-targeted facilitation of primary sludge anaerobic fermentation by micro-aeration and the simultaneous nutrients transformations

Mohammed Mouhib, Chenxi Liu, Lin Li, Qiang He

Anaerobic fermentation is a widely used technology for resource recovery from municipal sludge (e.g., primary sludge). Micro-aeration is an emerging strategy which can be incorporated into this technology. However, the effect of micro-aeration on the anaer ...

Charge fluctuations in the intermediate-valence ground state of SmCoIn5

Nicola Colonna, Vladimir N. Strocov, Neeraj Kumar

The microscopic mechanism of heavy band formation, relevant for unconventional superconductivity in CeCoIn5 and other Ce-based heavy fermion materials, depends strongly on the efficiency with which f electrons are delocalized from the rare earth sites and ...

Emergent thermophoretic behavior in chemical reaction systems

Paolo De Los Rios, Daniel Maria Busiello, Shiling Liang

Exposing a solution to a temperature gradient can lead to the accumulation of particles on either the cold or warm side. This phenomenon is known as thermophoresis, and its microscopic origin is still debated. Here, we show that thermophoresis can be obser ...

Temperature- and vacancy-concentration-dependence of heat transport in Li3ClO from multi-method numerical simulations

Federico Grasselli

Despite governing heat management in any realistic device, the microscopic mechanisms of heat transport in all-solid-state electrolytes are poorly known: existing calculations, all based on simplistic semi-empirical models, are unreliable for superionic co ...

Transport across thin membranes: Effective solute flux jump

François Gallaire, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna

A model to describe the transport across membranes of chemical species dissolved in an incompressible flow is developed via homogenization. The asymptotic matching between the microscopic and macroscopic solute concentration fields leads to a solute flux j ...

Probing Surfactant Bilayer Interactions by Tracking Optically Trapped Single Nanoparticles

Olivier Martin, Jeonghyeon Kim

Single-particle tracking and optical tweezers are powerful techniques for studying diverse processes at the microscopic scale. The stochastic behavior of a microscopic particle contains information about its interaction with surrounding molecules, and an o ...

The effect of high relative humidity on a network of water-sensitive particles (couscous) as revealed by in situ X-ray tomography

Gioacchino Viggiani

Water significantly influences the mechanical behaviour of all granular materials but none as much as hygroscopic amorphous particles. With sufficiently high water content, particles can swell, agglomerate and their mechanical properties can be reduced, ha ...

Filtered data and eigenfunction estimators for statistical inference of multiscale and interacting diffusion processes

Andrea Zanoni

We study the problem of learning unknown parameters of stochastic dynamical models from data. Often, these models are high dimensional and contain several scales and complex structures. One is then interested in obtaining a reduced, coarse-grained descript ...
